Default Targa Top Value

What's an appropriate price for the later version (89-96) tinted targa top? What's an appropriate price for the same version solid top?

I found one here....solid top for around $400. Shipping is expensive. I priced the new tinted tops for about 6 to $800.00 shopping around.

I bought a used painted top off eBay, the guy's listing said small chip on rear corner. Here's what I got:


I appealed the case for buyer protection saying the listing was deceptive and lost the case. I would never try to get another one off eBay...

Just my 2 cents...

I agree, the tops on ebay are not always as advertised. I bought 2 off ebay and both arrived damaged! Never again. Don't buy a top without actually seeing it. Guy

Totally agree. I knew what the prices were on ebay when I posted the original question; I wanted the truth, not the BS from ebay. Thanks for the replies!
